Brisbane interested in Billings!!!!!
Didn't take the media long to run with this one!!!!!
Who do we like from Brisbane?????

Not saying trade Billings, but, Billings and Hickey (plus draft pick or another player) to Brisbane for Pick #1 or#2, what do people think?????

Both are still under contract for starters and if wanted their first pick, we’d have to throw in more than just Billings and Hickey to get it.stonecold wrote: ↑Mon 11 Jun 2018 12:30am Didn't take the media long to run with this one!!!!!

Also, if Billings were to leave, he wants to stay in Melbourne from what I’ve heard.

Re: Brisbane interested in Billings!!!!!
Cant imagine they would want Hickey. They have Smith and McInerney already.
No way would we get pick 1.
Straight swap for either Witherden or Berry would be nice

Re: Brisbane interested in Billings!!!!!
Well, for the sake of locker room chat, if Billings told the Saints at seasons end that he wants to go to the Lions, I think Billings, Dunstan plus one of either Hickey or Longer for their first pick would make it interesting.stonecold wrote: ↑Mon 11 Jun 2018 12:39amContracts mean nothing, also, read between the brackets!!!!!SydneySainter wrote: ↑Mon 11 Jun 2018 12:34amBoth are still under contract for starters and if wanted their first pick, we’d have to throw in more than just Billings and Hickey to get it.stonecold wrote: ↑Mon 11 Jun 2018 12:30am Didn't take the media long to run with this one!!!!!

Re: Brisbane interested in Billings!!!!!
Excellent. Move him on.
I’d take a gold class ticket and a kick in the junk.
Billing’s is weak and not up to AFL standard.

Re: Brisbane interested in Billings!!!!!
Interesting post. Brisbanes first pick for Billings and Hickey? I think Billings is going to be a great player for us or another team. His good gamess are very good. Hickey wasnt great against Swans but hes a good player and seems to be getting better. If this post is on the mark Its good to see another club rates Hickey so highly, unlike some on this forum. ![😁](//cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/twitter/twemoji@latest/assets/svg/1f601.svg)

Re: Brisbane interested in Billings!!!!!
No mention was made of them being interested in Hickey - the OP said - if they are and need a sweetener - we could throw in Hickey

Re: Brisbane interested in Billings!!!!!
Hickey came from Gold Coast probably wants to stay in Melb
Longer came from Bris to return to Melb
Billings will do well in a good side just like all our players==
remember Hartung against us when Haw flogged us a couple of years ago?
Pick 1 would most likely be a stuff up if we had it

Re: Brisbane interested in Billings!!!!!
Billings is a proven performer and is young and will be a star. He obviously has had an awful 2018, but if he can get some form in the second half of the year he has big currency.
I would say him and next years 2nd rounder for Brisbanes first rounder.

Re: Brisbane interested in Billings!!!!!
Billings is a young gun, you don't let them go, its cutting your nose off to spite your face.
If Brisbane approach us the response should be: "fine we'll have your 1st pick and Rayner, otherwise p*ss off and stop wasting our time".

Re: Brisbane interested in Billings!!!!!
Billings has shown flashes of brilliance and quality, but I reckon his development has been disappointing. Hard though to assess him in the context of our current miasma. So many of our players have gone backwards, so just as likely his indifferent development is the result of the current coaching regime as it is him not being the player we hoped for. Would be hard to take to trade him and see him become a gun elsewhere. And yet, as he is, meh........

Re: Brisbane interested in Billings!!!!!
No proof on this anywhere. Just speculative talk plus we rate Billings higher than other clubs will. He is weak and inaccurate in front of the sticks, other clubs know this. We wont get Rayner and first pick, we would be lucky to get either even with a ruck thrown in

Re: Brisbane interested in Billings!!!!!
Billings won't be going anywhere. It will achieve nothing. He will start hitting his peak in 2-3 years. I would be majorly pissed if they decided to get rid of him. He has had an ordinary year as have heaps of players. Time to move on and try rectify it for the rest of the year and make 2019 a winner.

Wouldn't expect to get Rayner and their first pick, but you'd walk away and discuss it no further if they weren't prepared to offer that.DJ Higgins wrote: ↑Mon 11 Jun 2018 1:54pm No proof on this anywhere.
